ea Official aed Bulletin of — Ordo ae Orientis 1981 ag LXXVI Januar: ran aren nn eae what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law, Welcome ‘to the: 1st Issue of the Magickal Link an 0.7.0. monthly Bul- leton. First of a11 this does not take the place of the 0.1.0, Newe- letter; but instead is an added service we want to give our members So they are up to date with whats happening among the different groups within the order, “This will be done through monthly reports from various Camps, Chapters and Lodges and Reports from the Supreme Coun- Sil of the 0.7.0, and the Board of Bishops of the Ecclesiae Cnosticae Catholicae. We will also hear-from time to time from other groups forming for various purposes within the Order such as the 11th degree and different groups working on Ritual and other special areas in mag- ick But, this is only a part of the purpose of the Magickal Link. We also want to be @ sounding board for the membership through a column where we can print letters. Also there will be advertisment/notice column where menbers ean request needs free of cost. See the heading 'Menber to Member' for further details The 0.7.0 Newsletter will keep on publishing its wonderful informative articles and should be out in January if Bill gets the help he needs We hope that the Magickal Link can £i11 the gap so sorely needed in bringing members in ‘closer communication with each other The Magical Link will also carry notices of teaching materials, tapes I books available from the Order,Jom the CAL!PHon The latest project at Grand Lodge is to get the Guild system going. Crowley recommended this highly in the {Blue Equinox". So do I. It is an excellent system of lat- eval (horizantal) energy manifes- tation, as opposed to vertical structuring. For this purpose I have created the curzp oF prama & THAUMATURY. Obviously this places heavy emphasis on dramatic ritual, both group and individual. unfor- tunately I have not yet found the secretarial help needed to pro- vide communications. If there are any volutteers, please let me know.

The Fenris Encampment was charted on 5 duly, 1980, e.v. by the hand and seal of Our Most Holy King & Caliph, H. A. 777. Fenris was created to provide a divergent stylistic and esthetic approach to Thelema, mainly through a res toration of the Sumerian systems of Magick (retonstructed and re- aligned to conform with the pic- tation of Aiwaz), and an explor- ation of certain esoteric tech- niques revealed by Mr. wm. 3. Bur- xoughs. We are also interested in the promulgation of Thelema via the marketplace. The Order must be strengthened: It must have gold. At this time the Penris Encamp- ment is not open to written com- munication from the Outer; how- ever, this situation will soon change.
